Description
What!? I drew a Bionicle? Yup. Behold: Tahu slashing with a flame sword, drawn in my usual Power Portrait style.Commissioned by DrJoeystein .
This was really a challenge since I've never drawn anything quite like a Bionicle before.
I think it turned out really well in the end though! Let me know what you think!

Wiz: "in 2001, lego released a line of robot action figures known as bionicles"
Boomstick: "created by a mad western fantasy nerd known as greg fahey"
Wiz: "bionicles were inspired by polynessian culture, right down to their names"
Boomstick: "plus powers that include creating a blast that remind people what the west used these islands for, nuclear testing, like the 1 that created godzilla"
Wiz: "more like specific types of bombs"
Boomstick: "from the main 6, we can tell you that 4 have potentially dangerous bomb types"
Wiz: " gali, the toa of water, once destroyed an island using her nuke power, the water bomb is a combination of hydrogen and oxygen bomb, which is potentially dangerous in the wrong hands"
Boomstick: "tahu, the toa of fire, continues the trend of the 90's fire based super soldier, plus with a Polynesian twist of being able to surf lava and like the other fire based supersoldiers, his bomb is thermonuclear, with 1 of thee most deadly bomb types, plus being fire, means a whole lot of devastation"
Wiz: "kopaka, the toa of ice, the ice nuke can bring about a global ice age, like the 1 that happened during earth's early history causing the so called snowball earth, his power can be compared to the ice dragon known as kyurem, whose power equates to that of groudon, the fire behemoth"
Boomstick: "and lewa, the toa of air, do you want to know about the power of the air nuke, just look at mega rayquaza and the hydrogen bomb, both are very powerful air based ubers whose power causes a lot of devastation"

I'm both laughing wonderfully at this, and also wondering if Wiz and Boomstick will ever use a Bionicle in a Death Battle.
Now, I really want to see a BIONICLE BATTLE ROYALE using all 6 of the original Toa Mata

Man I love that epic sense of motion with the slash taking up most of the artwork, it highlights his old arm-swinging function in a badass way
